Photography | Essays on travel |
 | Introduction
by Chris Dreyer
The journey involves not only the body, but the heart, mind
and soul as well. For an activity that nearly everybody takes part in, travel is quite a complex topic. Contained within these pages are pieces of varying degrees of intimacy with the topic of travel. |
 | A nomad’s search for definition
by Maninda Boralessa
Ever have the feeling that you don’t fit in? Not exactly that you’re not welcomed, or that people have something against you, just that you feel a little different. I can undoubtedly say I have experienced the feeling a few times in my life. Katie Dutli photo |
 | The relativity of the mundane
by Franz Vancura
The speed and ease with which we can traverse the globe has effectively removed the gradual transitions that once accompanied
the radically disparate people, places, and cultures one encounters while traveling. Megan Langfitt watercolor |
| Pagan ritual sacrifice and Turkish apple tea: Ruminations on Glasgow and Galway
by Robert Cowan
On the bonny, bonny banks of Loch Lomond in mid-April, the air is crisp and the snow is melting, by either the high road or the low. Just one hour from a major Scottish metropolis, the Loch is woody, damp, gray, and everything that the songs make it out to be. Robert Cowan photos 1, 2, 3, 4 |

 | A glimpse into the fishing life
by Sierra Golden
I can’t say that many people could truly understand fishing. Some families fall into it, and a boat is handed from generation to generation, or fishing genes create the best fishermen from father
to son and from father to son. But not always. Sierra Golden photo |
| | Excerpts from a road trip
by Ben Ford
As it turned out, we were sharing the train car with a cracked-out MADMAN. Let me establish the scene. At one end of the car the four of us were seated on the first level. At the far end, on the second level, sat a group of rowdy (and possibly disturbed) men. |
 | Cultural enlightenment 101: Education through travel
by Chris Heinrich
Traveling for education is about far more than learning facts. Those can be learned from books and documentaries at a much-reduced cost and at one’s own convenience. No, those who seek education in travel seek to understand lives and perceptions that are different from their own. Patrick Constantino photo |

 | The long journey of the Catholic church
by Chris Sparks
We are all on a journey, indeed, and this has set the stage for Catholic practice, Catholic culture, and Catholic expectations for the journey ahead. Chris Dreyer photo |
| | Tourists in space and time: A pragmatic take on time travel
by Carolyn Brayko
To travel through time, keep the present mindset, using the past as a guide and the future as the goal or solution. |
| | Excerpts from a family trip
by Dominic Bruno
Yesterday, Sue and I walked around much of historical Rome with Uncle Terry and a group of Israelis and Palestinians. It was intriguing to watch Terry tailor his tour commentary to such a group. |
 | Mount Lassen: More than just a National Park
by Dan Hess
Starting when I was about six, my father and uncle began taking me on camping trips. These trips started out as just a few days, never straying far from home, but as the years went on they became longer, with some reaching over three weeks. Dan Hess photo |
 | A New York state of mind
by Adam Membrey
The Big Apple is, in my limited experience, the city of dancing eyes. With each sidewalk you step off of and each stride you step into, the nervous eyes of curious and guarded strangers begs for
your life story. Eric Cunningham watercolor |
